A big “thank-you”We want to take the opportunity of thanking you for everything you have given us. We thank the Lord our God because He sent such good people to teach us about everything. Thankyou for the fantastic camps on Fruska Gora, thanks for the care you showed us, for the advice you gave us, for the workshops, the outings and the brilliant games. But above all else we want to thank you for teaching us how to get closer to God.While we were living in Kosovo we didn’t know who God really was. Then in 1999 we had to come to Belgrade with our family (we have been living in the same camp for 9 years now). After everything we’d been through our hearts were empty, and we didn’t have the will to live. We didn’t think that anyone in Belgrade would help us. Then you (Child Evangelism Fellowship of Serbia and Montenegro) came into contact with us, and - just like that - joy came back into our hearts. We listened carefully to the stories and songs about the Lord, and most of all to the prayers – we needed those. That day we received the Lord God into our hearts and realised that, “Whoever has the Son, has eternal life, and whoever does not have the Son of God, does not have life.” Thankyou for teaching us to forgive our enemies, and to love. If it wasn’t for you, our hearts would still be sad and therefore we’re saying a big “thankyou” for everything.We recommend to everyone that they should pray to God for forgiveness, “since God is so good that He gave His only-begotten Son to die for our sins.” Pray and forgive others because you will be saved and have eternal life. The Lord said, “Pray continually, give thanks in everything, for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.” (1 Thessalonians 5:18)Ana and Dosta Zivkovic.
